Health Savings Accounts (HSA)

As the cost of health care continues to rise, many employers feel that the only solution is to shrink employee benefit plans.

There is a Better Way.

You now have a new powerful option available to you … Health Savings Accounts (HSA). HSA’s are part of the growing industry trend toward Consumer Driven Health Care (CDHC), which is set to revolutionize health care in this country, and Sorensen Flexible Benefits can help you establish your own.

What is an HSA?

An HSA is a tax-free savings account used to save money to help pay for qualified health care expenses. Combined with a High Deductible Health Plan, the HSA pays for qualified and routine health care expenses until the individual has met the deductible, then the insurance coverage takes over. Plus, unused funds roll over from year to year and continue to earn tax-free interest, increasing the benefit of today’s savings.

Therefore, you or your employees get a triple dose of tax benefits: tax-free contributions, tax-free disbursements, and tax-free interest earned.

What Can An HSA Do For Me?

Health Savings Accounts gives you or your employees the opportunity to save money and gain more control over future expenses, resulting in several possibilities:

Payroll Tax Savings!

Lower Insurance Premiums!

Increased Employee Morale!
